By Miserable George They started off at a pretty good clip, and have been picking up speed ever since! Sat., Jan., 7th., saw well over 300 folks attending GT’s one year anniversary celebration at the shop in Pineda, on Allen Hill Rd., just north of Pineda Causeway outside Melbourne, Fl. Warm weather prevailed, there was a lot of good food, including a freshly roasted pig, live entertainment by the band "Rough Edges," plus drinks, and Read the rest of this entry »

By Miserable George Well, by the time you read this, I’m hoping it will be warm in our area! Not so on Jan. 14, 2012, in Cocoa, FL…the day of the big Wolf Pack State Party. I tell ya Hoss, it was down-right FRIGID!!! But, to kinda offset the cold and the wind, there was a nice bonfire going on the grounds, and if you were lucky enough to get a spot close to it, well, it did warm you up at least a little. But, Read the rest of this entry »

Nearly 400 bikes left Sunrise Harley Davidson with a police escort from Broward County Sheriff’s Office. Read the rest of this entry »

February is the month of love. We have the Super Bowl on the 5th, Valentine's Day on the 14th, Love your pet Day on the 20th, the Daytona 500 on the 26th, and an extra day, Leap Day. Now, that's a lot of LOVE. After having great holidays and a great start to the New Year, I am puzzled at Read the rest of this entry »

I always write about what a great bunch of people bikers are…but I never expected to have such an awesome amount of food collected on our first ever Volusia County Grub Run in December. Thanks to the collaboration of the Rue & Ziffra law firm, First Turn Steakhouse and Sports Lounge, radio time with Tracy & Frank from WHOG radio and the wonderful bikers that Read the rest of this entry »

I have lived in Highlands County for over thirty years and “YES” back then there was nothing out here but orange groves and cows. But, today we are at the “hub” of the motorcycle community. Thanks to the migration of a group of motorcycle enthusiasts from down south, Sebring has become home to one of Florida’s fastest growing motorcycle events, the “RUN TO THE HEARTLAND” which occurs the first weekend in October each year.

What do Pirates and Bikers have in common? They both know how to throw a hell of a party!!! Thanks to Treasure Coast Harley-Davidson of Stuart, who hosted the Hog Holidays Celebration. It had to be one of the best Christmas parties of all time. There was something for everybody. They had bikes, babes, booze, barbeque and BANDS! Read the rest of this entry »

By far my best ride this month was out of the White Eagle and billed as a Frosty Balls Fun Run. This was a night ride and it happened to be on a night of a below freezing temp. I was amazed that so many showed up for a night of near torture. We had a great evening and when we left the club after midnight Read the rest of this entry »

By Miserable George Sunday, Dec. 4th. dawned bright and sunny, the answer to all our prayers for the 30th ABATE Toy Run, the largest all-ABATE run in the state. Macy’s ban on motorcycle parking in front of their store, seemingly didn’t hamper the assembly of well over 5000 bikes Read the rest of this entry »

The 14th Annual Critter Run came off with a bang this year...257 riders signed in at the Brevard Co. Humane Society’s Cox Rd. shelter, many bringing donations of pet food, bedding supplies, and money to help our furry friends. It was an enjoyable ride around Brevard County, beachside, and finally ending in quaint Cocoa Village at the Dog & Bone bistro on Stone St. The band, "Rough House" was entertaining, Read the rest of this entry »

Happy New Year. Here's hoping you had a very, very Merry Christmas. I was surprised when more merchants were acknowledging Christmas instead of wishing you a Happy Holiday. I was impressed when a girl at the deli counter of Winn Dixie wished me a Merry Christmas. Maybe the Bah! Humbug! People are losing. Read the rest of this entry »

Thirteen may be an unlucky number, but, thirteen times TWO was a big lucky number for Roscoe’s Chili Challenge, 2011 edition. November 3, 4, 5 and 6, saw some real nice weather...maybe a bit cool, and one brief shower, but nice just the same. We rolled in early on Wednesday, set up camp, and watched the crowd start to slowly but steadily trickle in. By Thursday, it was filling up, and Friday saw the spacious grounds nearly filled to capacity. Vendors abounded...merchandise and food...were up and running. The body painters were busy all day and night Read the rest of this entry »
